Yes. There’s a Decathlon in Porto and several other outlets

Welcome to the forum, @Eddiecanuck!
No problem with the question, and we are glad to have you ask on the forum. I'll just take advantage of the occasion to remind people how the Search function does work quite well, at least for some questions...
Searching for "pole porto" quickly gave me this thread.
Searching for "staff sjpp" was a bit trickier, but "poles sjpp" identified this thread. The first reply has a link to one shop in SJPP and contact information to a second shop, and you can then make a specific request to them. But maybe someone with recent personal experience will be able to comment on the supply of staffs, rather than sticks/poles.

They start at €6 each for basic ones. I've used them and found them quite adequate.

The 6 euros ones do they fold down to fit into a pack? I am flying into Milan to do part of the VF and hope to find some poles that fit into my pack.

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Ive used them too. Cheap and cheerful but fine for helping balance. Although I have my own, I'm going to do the same as it is crazy to pay more than the value of the poles to put them in the hold.
